I'm all for keeping him out until after the bye. Let him rest and not do any kind of football activities. We need JT at 100%. Plus, its not like Demetric Evans is a bum. That dude has been playing really well all year. He deserves some more PT.
I agree 100%. We beat Dallas and Philly without JT. Get him his rest so he'll be good to go for our stretch run. Evans has played really well. Plus he's good against the run and the Steelers will have Willie Parker back next Monday.

Shut him down until after the bye, we need him healthy for the stretch run
I agree. Right now he's doing us any good playing at 60%.

Evans has stepped up and played real well. But what is going on with James, I have not even seen him in the rotation?

Thanks for the info. I'll have to go back and watch the DVR. I did not catch him one time, and did not see a holding call on him.
I was in and out a little bit, but I didn't miss much maybe a couple minutes of game time. He must not have done anything or got to much playtime?

Just looking at the game stats James recorded no tackles and that was a Defensive offside,penalty which was declined in the 4th quarter. No wonder I didn't see him he wasn't out there much and didn't do anything when he was.

He didn't commit the penalty the OL held him.
It was in the 4th quarter I believe.

That is fine, I am all for letting Taylor get his surgery and rest.... The more pressing issue here is Springs will miss the Mon night game as well. While Rogers and Smoot are playing very well.... the Steelers have more than a couple pretty good receivers. Not to mention a QB that will pick you apart if given time. Our pass rush is not even close to the Giants'.
